Good machine
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This machine is great. Coffee always tastes wonderful and it’s fairly easy to use. We use this as our secondary only because we are lazy and this one take longer.

Intimidating to look at, but you'll get it quickly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My husband knows I love espresso and talked me into getting this machine as my very first espresso maker. I was extremely hesitant because when you haven't used something like this before it's extremely intimidating. However, I actually watched some youtube videos and followed the quick start instructions with no problems. I love it and make espresso shots and drinks with it daily. It's an expensive initial purchase but it's absolutely worth it if you're an espresso lover.

The new office watercooler
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for our office kitchen, and it has become the new 'watercooler' where people hang out and chat. We have a couple of people who have these at home, so the rest of us are learning to ditch the Keurig and have a new appreciation for good coffee beverages. The grinder is amazingly quiet, and the overall process is quick and simple. Love it so far.

Great espresso machine
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great quality if you take the time to learn how to use it. It may take a few tries at first, but you can dial it in within the first couple of times using it.

Goodbye 7$ coffee
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great. The only thing you need to do is find the proper settings for the coffee beans you like to use to get the perfect shot. Stunning double shots through and through. Easy to clean.

Super Easy Espresso Machine!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent product. Pressing the power button, starting on the grinder, and making my morning espresso is super easy. The built-in grinder makes life so much simpler. I highly recommend it to the professional who must wake up and go in the morning.

Great lattes and cappuccinos from the very start.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We got this during Black Friday and it's been a work horse ever since. My wife and I use this machine several times a day (that's probably not that great for us), but we just cant have enough of lattes and cappuccinos now. We are still learning how to do latte art, but for the essential matters which is to make a double espresso and froth the milk for it, I'd say it's easy to learn and it tastes great.

Barista Express
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am enjoying my new Breville Barista Express. Setup was not difficult and it allows me to brew great tasting espresso in minutes. I should have purchased this years (and hundreds of dollars at Starbucks) ago.

This has replaced Starbucks
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Being someone who drives a bit to get to and from work, plus kids' events, etc, Starbucks coffee was an easy, yet expensive way to go. We looked at what we spent on that decided if this was as good as we heard, it'll pay for itself. This has not only replaced Starbucks, but we no longer use our Keurig or our coffee maker. This is so simple to use, yet makes better tasting espresso, whether that be a latte, straight espresso, Americano, etc. This was an excellent purcahse for us.

I love it 3000
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well, what can I say. After 4 years, $300 in other espresso machines, $200 in wasted espresso trying to pull a decent shot. $60 on a loud, finicky grinder. For what? This thing went on sale and finally decided enough was enough. I worked at Starbucks for 2 years which made it really hard to enjoy home made coffee, even with Starbucks being freshly ground in my home. This thing — once dialed in, which by the way is incredible that you have the option to dial it in — can pull shots just as good as Starbucks. I made a latte and the shots were perfect. The steamer actually makes things hot and frothy unlike most other machines. Plus, I’m here singing praises about it. So it’s worth your time and money. The manual is comprehensive and comes with a breadth of tools and cleaning accessories. If you love espresso and handcrafted coffee (and tea, since there’s a dedicated hot water spout), get this thing. And take care of it!!! You won’t be disappointed.

Easy set up
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my replacement for a DeLongi that I owned. The fresh grind is the best. I also like the features built in steamer and hot water dispenser. So easy to set up and operate. I just had one issue for the installation to figure out grind switch but tech support was prompt to help. The set up guide could be better.

Great machine so far
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was so hesitant to pull the trigger on this one because of the price, but so glad I did. Breville has not let me down with any of their products I have purchased so far - smart oven, juicer, espresso machine. I had some difficulty getting the pressure up on my initial espresso pull, and though I was going to need to send the unit back. I called Breville customer service and the reps there are super knowledgeable. They don't go into it much in the guide, but depending on the type of whole bean you are grinding, you may need to change from the single wall filter to the dual wall filter. As soon as I made the change, the pressure gauge was exactly where it needed to be. I've had the unit for about 2 months now, and the only downside is I'm blowing through Americanos and probably slightly over-caffeinated... but saving me tons of $$ from the local brew house.

So far so awesome
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far, absolutely love the machine. Easy to use and maintain and it make EXCELLENT Espresso. Me and my wife are saving our trips to Starbucks because of it. It would take a few minutes to set up and make sure everything is in right range (coffee amount, pressure, etc.) but as soon as you established your favorite setting, all you need to do is press buttons and enjoy fresh coffee. Very happy with the machine 10/10 so far.
